About the game
In this prequel to the events of Act 1 of Harakiri: Blades of Honor, we will follow the path of Jubei, who will be immersed in an intense adventure to try to change his own destiny. The Oni King will be the final obstacle in the path that the ronin will have to follow through the events. GAMEPLAY HIGHLIGHTS Thought in detail for single players, in which you will be able to control Jubei, the most powerful character in the world of Harakiri. Be part of the evolution of the story and character, through components that will be revealed step by step during the campaign, and that will transform our protagonist into an uncontrollable force. Without the help of the Kamis, Jubei will rely on his ability to accumulate his energy and the Wrath mode, which adds a new tactical layer to the game that rewards strategy in combat. Take on the Oni King and his spectacular miniature representation in an epic finale to discover Jubei's fate. 2 scenarios to face the enemies of this expansion with a group of 4 characters in one-shot sessions. —description from the publisher
